When we are dealing with parsed inputs (i.e. using identity), we need to ensure
that we have a valid stream collection (and therefore DBCollection) before
anything flows dowsntream.
In those cases, we hold onto those events until we get such a collection.
Fixes#3356

This commit separates collection and selections into a new separate structure:
DecodebinCollection.
This provides a much cleaner/saner way of dealing with collections being
updated, gapless playback, etc...
There is now a list of DecodebinCollection in flight, of which two are special:
* input_collection, the currently inputted/merged collection
* output_collection, the currently active collection on the output of multiqueue
Handling GST_EVENT_SELECT_STREAMS is split, by looking for the collection to
which it applies. And the requested streams are stored in it. IIF that
collection is output_collection we can do the switch, else it will be updated
when it becomes active.
Detecting which collection/selection is active is done by looking at the
GST_EVENT_STREAM_START on the output of the multiqueue.

* Move the handling of GST_EVENT_STREAM_START on a slot to a separate function
* There was a lot of usage of `gst_stream_get_stream_id()` for the slot
active_stream. Cache that instead of constantly querying it.
* Rename the variables in `handle_stream_switch()` to be clearer
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6774>
* Centralize associating an output to a slot in one function, including properly
resetting those fields
* Rename functions to be more explicit
* Move code to "reset" an output stream into a dedicated function (will be used
later)
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6774>
* Rename the function names to be clearer, with prefixes
* Pass the input (or stream) directly where appropriate
* Document usage, inputs, ownership
* Rename variables for clarity where applicable
* Avoid double lock/unlock if callee can handle it directly

Simplify its usage by having it directly create the message if the collection
changed. This is what caller were always doing and avoids releasing selection
locks yet-another-time
Also use it in more places to avoid code repetition

To simplify the description, I'm assuming we only have two streams: video and audio.
For the video stream, we have the following events :
- STREAM_START => stream->wait set to true
- NEW_SEGMENT(1) => blocked waiting in gst_stream_synchronizer_wait
- FLUSH_START => unblocked
- FLUSH_STOP => stream->wait reset to false
- NEW_SEGMENT(2) => not waiting, since stream->wait is false
Then for the audio stream, we have the following events :
- STREAM_START => stream->wait set to true
- NEW_SEGMENT(2) => blocked waiting in gst_stream_synchronizer_wait for ever.
Note: The first NEW_SEGMENT event and the FLUSH_START, FLUSH_STOP events of the audio stream
are dropped before being received by the streamsynchronizer element, because the decodebin audio pad src
is not yet linked to the playsink audio pad sink.
To fix this deadlock, we don't reset stream->wait to false in the FLUSH_STOP event when it is not
waiting for the EOS of the other streams.

In some cases you want to ensure that a specific element factory is used
while requiring some specific caps but this was not possible. You can
now do `qtmux:video/x-prores,variant=standard|factory-name=avenc_prores_ks`
to ensure that the `avenc_prores_ks` factory is used to produce the
'standard' variant of prores video stream.
This also enhances a bit the documentation

This counter is incremented once for every segment, meaning it would
e.g. overflow after 24 days when using 1ms segments. Once that happens,
completely wrong positions are reported and invalid memory is handed out
for writing/reading the next segments.
As the affected variables are unfortunately part of the public API of
the struct, a second set of variables is added together with accessor
functions and both variables are kept in sync for backwards
compatibility.
All existing users of the two variables are moved to the new ones but
external code might still run into the overflow.
This also slightly breaks API as external code updating the variables
will have no effect anymore but the only known user of this is
pulsesink.

There's nothing requiring <= 64 channels except for getting the reorder
map and creating a channel mixing matrix, but those won't be possible to
call anyway as channel positions can only express up to 64 channels.
